Former Fine Gael TD Dara Murphy says he intends to co-operate with any inquiry into his attendance records and expenses.

He told the Irish Examiner he would contact Dail officials about the issue, and insists he hasn't broken any rules.

It's after he was criticised by the Taoiseach for refusing to refer himself to an Oireachtas committee.

Mr Murphy, who resigned earlier this month, claimed his salary of €95,000 and allowances of more than €51,000, despite being largely based in Brussels.
